1	To the chief Musician# , A Psalm for the sons of Korah. Hear# this, all ye people; give ear# , all ye inhabitants# of the world: [for: or, of]
			2	Both low# and high# , rich and poor, together.
			3	My mouth shall speak# of wisdom; and the meditation of my heart shall be of understanding.
			4	I will incline# mine ear to a parable: I will open# my dark saying upon the harp.
			5	Wherefore should I fear# in the days of evil, when the iniquity of my heels shall compass# me about?
			6	They that trust# in their wealth, and boast# themselves in the multitude of their riches;
			7	None of them can by any means# redeem# his brother, nor give# to God a ransom for him:
			8	(For the redemption of their soul is precious# , and it ceaseth# for ever:)
			9	That he should still live# for ever, and not see# corruption.
			10	For he seeth# that wise men die# , likewise the fool and the brutish person perish# , and leave# their wealth to others.
			11	Their inward thought is, that their houses shall continue for ever, and their dwelling places to all generations; they call# their lands after their own names. [all...: Heb. generation and generation]
			12	Nevertheless man being in honour abideth# not: he is like# the beasts that perish# .
			13	This their way is their folly: yet their posterity approve# their sayings. Selah. [approve...: Heb. delight in their mouth]
			14	Like sheep they are laid# in the grave; death shall feed# on them; and the upright shall have dominion# over them in the morning; and their beauty# # shall consume# in the grave from their dwelling. [beauty: or, strength] [in the grave from...: or, the grave being an habitation to every one of them]
			15	But God will redeem# my soul from the power of the grave: for he shall receive# me. Selah. [power: Heb. hand] [the grave: or, hell]
			16	Be not thou afraid# when one is made rich# , when the glory of his house is increased# ;
			17	For when he dieth he shall carry nothing away# : his glory shall not descend# after him.
			18	Though while he lived he blessed# his soul: and men will praise# thee, when thou doest well# to thyself. [while...: Heb. in his life]
			19	He shall go# to the generation of his fathers; they shall never# see# light. [He...: Heb. The soul shall]
			20	Man that is in honour, and understandeth# not, is like# the beasts that perish# .
